SET FOR ML 11 Confessed Murderers of Mrs. Griffith Will Have Time to Prepare Defense. (Special to The Journal.) Corvallls, Or, March 26-Charles Humphrey, the last to confess "part in tl killing of Mrs. Eliza' Griffith, will be tried for the crime first His trial was set by Judge Harris yesterday to begin April H. The trial of George Humphrey will likely follow without delay. -George and Charles Humphrey, stolid and Indifferent were both In court yes terday afternoon. The courtroom , was crowded with men and women anxious to get. sight of the self confessed mur derers. .-''.".-'.'. Attorney H. J. Parklson filed a motion with affidavits asking for a continuance of the trial for not less than 80 days. The district attorney asked for 80 min utes In whloh to file an answer to the motion made by the attorneys for the defense. . . Affidavits ead to court.' When the court was called to order Mr. Parklson read his motion and the affidavits. These were quite lengthy and stated that the defense must have 80 days, or more time If possible, in which to consult with prospective wit nesses whom (he defense proposes to introduce to show that both Charles and George Humphrey are men of moral character and bear good reputations in the various vicinities In which they have lived. There were three affidavits at tached to the motion for delay, two be ing signed by George and Charles Hum phreys, respectively, and the third by Attorney Parklson. In the affidavits the Humphreys stat ed that they wish to subpena certain men, the names of all but two being aiven. Of the witnesses they desire In their behalf four-llve-at-or-ar-Banks4 five at Philomath, eleven at Dallas, six at Toncalla and L. 8. Westfall of the Thiel detective agency, Seattle. They, state that the witnesses with the ex ception of Westfall will testify as to their reputation as law abiding citizens, and that these witnesses know the Humpureys well enough to assert their innocence. .i-, ' Bnngll&r Worker to B Called. In relation to ? Mr. Westfall the Humphreys propose to prove by him, according to the affidavits, that thU murderer of Mrs. Griffith wore No. 9 shoes and that the f Humphreys wear a smaller size; that Westfall, as a de tective, sounded the Humphrey brothers shortly after the murder and obtained evidence that will prove their innocence; that the deteotlve also tracked the mur derer to the residence of Dr. E. N. North, a dentist who was at that time prkotloing dentistry in the town oi jrnu math; and that the shoes of the sup posed murderer have been found and that they- do not correspond with any that could have been worn by -either of the men charged with the crime. The affidavits also allege that the coroner's inquest ; held over the body of Mrs. Griffith shows that the Humph rey brothers are not guilty.; : The attorneys for the defense claim that owing to the fact that neither of them was at the preliminary exami nation of ..either George or Charles Humphrey they are not familiar with the ; evidence the state proposes to submit against these men. and that it will take considerable time to ascer tain from witnesses who testified bo fore the committing magistrate the nature of the evidence the state pro poses to present in the case. ' Sryson Would Be Pair. District Attorney Bryson presented an affidavit signed by Sheriff W. A. Gallatly stating that no witnesses were examined at the preliminary hearing of the men charged with the crime, and that in each case the preliminary hearing was waived by the attorneys who were appointed by the state to de fend the confessed criminals. . Mr. Bry son also cited to the attorneys for the defense that no evidence can be intro duced before the Jury relative to any other crimes the defendants may have committed, and that 25 witnesses is a needless number for the defense to present to prove the good reputation or tne men cnarged with the crime of killing Mrs. - Griffith. - - Attorney Bryson further stated that It was the wish of the district attor- neys office that ample time be given the attorneys for the defense to pre pare their case, but that 80 days is To Remove First " Signs of Old Age "The Infallible first sign of age Is the sagging cheek muscles," says Mm.
